Brewed with plenty of malt and lashings of English Progress and Golding hops, HSD is a truly classic ale of considerable depth and complexity.

Cask på Charlie´s bar, Köpenhamn. Kopparfärgad med lågt krämigt skum. Maltfokuserad lätt ESB med fina maltiga smaker med fudge och karamell. Len och krämig och lätt drag av blommig UK-humle. Bra balans, värmande och rejäl och ändå så lättdrucken. Så gott.
